Chapter 14: Stir-fried liver tip and braised large intestine

Lu Yan started a new round of tossing. She heard a few diners discussing the Double Ninth Festival today, and suddenly realized that the Double Ninth Festival was approaching. It's getting colder.

It's not that she wants to do any business on the Double Ninth Festival, but that the Double Ninth Festival is right next to the frost. Frost is the last solar term of autumn, and the beginning of winter is about to begin.

Once winter comes, there are many things that you no longer want to buy. So Lu Yan went back with another hundred kilograms of noodles and several large baskets of potatoes and sweet potatoes. After turning to the butcher's shop and buying meat as usual, Lu Yan saw the boss putting it in the drain next to it, so she asked how much it cost per pound. There were all the heart, liver, lungs, and large intestines in the offal. The offal was fishy and smelly. Nowadays, people are very fond of boiling food, and not many people eat it, so it is very cheap. The price is the same as the big bones, three pennies per pound, because Lu Yan is an old man. Patron, she can buy it for a penny cheaper.

Lu Yan thought of the miserable situation of modern braised large intestines weighing more than [-] pounds per pound, and without saying a word, she took care of the whole thing.

Potatoes and sweet potatoes can be stored, so Lu Yan left two baskets for eating. One basket was made into starch, and the other basket she actually wanted to bake. But there was no oven at home. Lu Yan had been making do before, making all the cakes steamed, but now she felt that it was no longer possible.

If she wants to eat a roasted sweet potato, she can bury it under the ashes of the burnt fire. But what if she wants to eat roasted chicken and duck? Want to eat some skewers? No, we still have to build an oven.

The oven is also called a bread kiln in modern times. This trend has become popular since a resident guest on a slow food farming variety show built one in the yard. A cook who cannot build a kiln is not a good food blogger.

Lu Yan has done it herself, so it's not difficult. But now there is a big problem. The bread kiln needs to lay an insulation layer, usually made of sand, cement and glass bottles. Bricks and sand and gravel are available, but cement is not available, so mortar can be used instead. But where do you get the glass bottles? Lu Yan thought about it for a long time but couldn't decide what to use instead. Lu Sheng walked out: "What are you worried about?"

"I want to build a kiln to bake things." Lu Yan said, "I'm hesitant about how to build it."

"Are you still planning to build it yourself?" Lu Sheng said, "Go to the village and find a mason. They can build it yourself. Those houses selling pancakes didn't build it themselves!"

Lu Yanhao stood up and slapped her thigh. How could she forget that there were ovens in ancient times, and there were many people who could build them, so there was no need for her to make them herself.

Lu Yan went out in a hurry, and soon she brought a mason to build the oven.

While the masons were working, Lu Yan cleaned the things she bought. The heart, liver, lungs and stomach are easy to clean, but the large intestine is really difficult to clean. Lu Yan washed it several times with plant ash before it was clean. The whole yard smelled of sewage. Even Lu Sheng, who loved watching Lu Yan cook, couldn't help it. Unable to bear it anymore, he held on to the door frame with a pale face: "Are you sure this can be delicious?"

"I'm sure." Lu Yan said, "You'll know when the brine starts soon."

Lu Yan took out the liver, cut the rest of the heart, lungs and belly into slices, and cut the large intestine into inch-long sections.

After everything was prepared, Lu Yan stir-fried the sugar, then added the prepared seasoning and soy sauce, added water and simmered it, and added all the chopped heart, lungs, tripe and intestines. After boiling, they still need to simmer for a few minutes to let the ingredients cook thoroughly. Lu Yan also cut two radishes and threw them in. After a while, the overbearing aroma of meat filled the yard. Lu Sheng came out of the house again, holding on to his hand. The door frame was in disbelief: "Is this the smell of sewer?"

Lu Yan nodded, turned off the heat, poured the stewed ingredients and soup into the jar and simmered. Braised meat is different from stewed meat. You don’t need to stew it too soft. Now it is chewy and not tooth-breaking, which is just right. The braised meat should be soaked in the marinade to get the flavor. The longer it is soaked, the more delicious it will be.

Lu Sheng was already very greedy, but now he couldn't eat, so he could only look at Lu Yan.

Lu Yan then took out the remaining liver and prepared to make a fried liver tip.

There are no green peppers now, but there are fungus and day lilies, which are dry goods. I have a lot of them at home. Lu Yan also knew how to quickly soak fungus for hair. She took out a bowl, put the fungus and daylily in it, poured in warm water, added a spoonful of sugar and a spoonful of flour, took another bowl and placed it on top. The two bowls shook like crazy.

Shake it for about two minutes, then open it again. The dry ingredients have been soaked.

Lu Yan first blanched the sliced ​​pork liver in water and took it out as soon as it changed color. Put on the oil pan again, sauté the onions, ginger and garlic, then add the fungus, day lily and the prepared sauce, finally add the sliced ​​pork liver, and use a little water starch to coat it thinly, and the sauce is fully coated The pork liver is ready to be cooked.

Fat liver tip

The most important trick to sautéing the liver tip is to use high heat and fast speed, otherwise it will affect the taste of the liver.

Lu Yan controlled the heat well, and the sauce she prepared was delicious. The liver tip was smooth, crispy and tender, which was very delicious.

Lu Sheng couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, everything will taste better when it's in your hands."

Lu Yan smiled and said, "I'll let you try the braised large intestine tonight. That one is the most delicious."

The masons finished building the kiln and left, but they had to leave it for a day to dry. Lu Yan didn't mind. She didn't want to use it today.

However, she looked at the baskets of sweet potatoes she bought, picked three and buried them in the ashes under the stove, adding to her afternoon meal.

Lu Sheng and Xu used their spoons to dig into the golden sweet potatoes, which were as sweet as honey. They were both very happy.

Especially Mrs. Xu, since Lu Yan came here, she feels that life at home has become much better. She is in a good mood and recovers from her injuries faster. She pulls Lu Yan along every day and says that she will set up a stall with her when her leg heals.

Lu Yan naturally responded. In fact, she really wanted to expand the size of her store. It would be better if she could open a small shop after saving up money, selling not only morning food but also evening food. Her daily fixed income is about 200 taels of silver, which is [-] taels of silver a month. She went to the town before and asked that the rent for a small storefront on the street is about [-] taels of silver a month. She usually pays half a year, so she can save up. This money will be available in a few months.

In the evening, Boss Lu came back, and Lu Yan opened the altar to get braised pork. The overbearing aroma of meat instantly swept everyone in the room.

The taste of braised pork and stewed meat is completely different, with a stronger flavor and chewier texture. The pork belly is very pliable, the heart is tough and crispy, and the lungs are softer. The most delicious thing is the pig intestine. The one-inch large intestine shrinks by half after cooking. It is just right for one bite. Take a bite, and the rich gravy will be in your mouth. When popped open, the outer skin is tough and the inside is full of oil, but not greasy, just a simple meaty aroma.

Braised pork sausage

Boss Lu and Lu Sheng were stunned when they tasted it.

Lu Sheng was stunned for a while and asked directly: "Isn't this thing very cheap?" No one bought the pig's urine at all. They all bought it and fed it to the dogs. He really didn't expect that the pig's urine that was still smelly in the morning could be cooked. It smells like this.

"Yeah, it's very cheap." Lu Yan nodded, "But my marinade is expensive. It's impossible to make the smelly sewer taste this good without spending money."

"Are you planning to sell it again?" Boss Lu asked: "But you said it was for sale, is there really anyone buying it?"

Lu Sheng didn't care at all: "Let them try it and they will buy it."

Lu Yan nodded: "Try tomorrow."
